One of the barriers to entry for trying out TripleO and its derivatives has been the relative difficulty in getting an environment up quickly.
This set of ansible roles is meant to help.
You will need a host machine (referred to as $VIRTHOST) with at least 16G
of RAM, preferably 32G, and you must be able to ssh to the virthost
machine as root without a password from the machine running ansible. Currently
the virthost machine must be running a recent Red Hat-based Linux distribution
(CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Fedora 22 - only CentOS 7 is currently tested), but we hope to
add support for non-Red Hat distributions too.
A quick way to test that your virthost machine is ready to rock is:
ssh root@$VIRTHOST uname -a
The defaults are meant to "just work", so it is as easy as downloading and running the quickstart.sh script.
You can download the quickstart.sh script with wget:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openstack/tripleo-quickstart/master/quickstart.sh
Alternatively, you can clone this repository and run the script from there.
You need some software available on your local system before you can run
quickstart.sh. You can install the necessary dependencies by running:
sudo bash quickstart.sh --install-deps
Deploy your virtual environment by running:
bash quickstart.sh $VIRTHOST
Where $VIRTHOST is the name of the host on which you want to install
your virtual triple0 environment. The quickstart.sh script will
install this repository along with ansible in a virtual environment on
your Ansible host and run the quickstart playbook. Note, the
quickstart playbook will delete the stack user on $VIRTHOST and
recreate it.
This script will output instructions at the end to access the deployed
undercloud. If a release name is not given, mitaka is used.
